LCD Panel

The liquid crystal panel of the monitor screen uses high-precision technology that

provides a pixel yield in excess of 99.99%. This means that some very small number

of pixels may not light or may remain lit at all times. This is due to the characteristics

of the liquid crystal panel, and does not indicate malfunction.

Take a few test shots

Before shooting your final image, shoot a test shot to ensure that the camera is

recording correctly.

Quick Start Basics

Note that the battery of a newly purchased camera is not charged. Perform the steps

below to load the battery into the camera and charge it.

• Your camera requires a special CASIO rechargeable lithium ion battery (NP-80) for

power. Never try to use any other type of battery.

1. Open the battery cover.

2. Load the battery.

With the CASIO logo on the

battery facing upwards (in the

direction of the monitor screen),

hold the stopper next to the

battery in the direction indicated

by the arrow as you slide the

battery into the camera. Press

the battery in until the stopper

secures it in place.

3. Close the battery cover.

First, charge the battery prior to use.

IMPORTANT!

• Make sure that you insert the cable connector into the USB/

AV port until you feel it click securely into place. Failure to

insert the connector fully can result in poor communication or

malfunction.

• Note that even while the connector is fully inserted, you still

will be able to see the metal part of the connector as shown in

the illustration.

• Pressing [ON/OFF] (Power) while the USB-AC adaptor is connected to the camera

will turn on the camera. Because of this, charging will stop.

• The USB-AC adaptor will become warm during charging. This is normal and does

not indicate malfunction.

• The shape of the power plug depends on each country or geographic area.

Back Lamp Operation

• The information in parentheses in the above table shows the lamp status while the

camera is turned on during charging.

Other Charging Precautions

• With the two charging methods described above, you can charge the camera’s

battery (NP-80) without removing it from the camera. You also can charge the

battery using an optionally available charger unit (BC-80L). Never use any other

type of charger device. Attempting to use a different charger can result in

unexpected accident.

• USB charging devices and power supply devices are subject to fixed standards.

Use of an inferior device or a device that is not up to standard can cause

malfunction and/or failure of your camera.

• Operation is not guaranteed in the case of a computer built or modified by you.

Even in the case of a commercially available computer, certain USB port

specifications may make it impossible to charge via the USB cable.

• A battery that is still warm due to normal use may not charge fully. Give the battery

time to cool before charging it.

• A battery discharges slightly even when it is not loaded in the camera. Because of

this, it is recommended that you charge the battery immediately before you need to

use it.

• Charging the camera’s battery may cause interference with TV and radio reception.

If this happens, plug the charger into an outlet that is further away from the TV or

radio.

• Actual charging time depends on current battery capacity and charging conditions.

• Do not use the USB-AC adaptor with any other device.

• Never use the power cord with another device.

• Use only the USB-AC adaptor and USB cable specified in this manual for charging.

Use of any other type of devices may result in improper charging.

Checking Remaining Battery Power

As battery power is consumed, a battery indicator on the monitor screen indicates

remaining power as shown below.

indicates battery power is low. Charge the battery as soon as possible.

Recording is not possible when is indicated. Charge the battery immediately.

• The level shown by the battery indicator may change when you switch between the

REC mode and PLAY mode.

• Leaving the camera for about 30 days with no power supplied while the battery is

dead will cause its date and time settings to be cleared. A message telling you to

configure time and date settings will appear the next time you turn on the camera

after restoring power. When this happens, configure date and time settings (page

104).

• See page 134 for information about battery life and number of shots.

• Battery power is used up more quickly when “On” is selected for the Anti Shake

setting (page 60). In this case, the camera may turn off even though the battery

level indicator is still amber. Recharge the battery more often than normal when

Anti Shake is enabled.

Battery Power Conservation Tips

• When you do not need to use the flash, select ? (Flash Off) for the flash setting

(page 36).

• Enable the Auto Power Off and the Sleep features to protect against wasting

battery power when you forget to turn off the camera (pages 105, 106).

Quick Start Basics

The first time you load a battery into the camera, a screen appears for configuring the

display language, date, and time settings. Failure to set the date and time correctly

will cause the wrong date and time data to be recorded with images.

IMPORTANT!

• A screen for language selection will not appear in step 2 of the procedure below if

you purchased a camera intended for the Japanese market. To change the display

language from Japanese in this case, use the procedure under “Specifying the

Display Language (Language)” (page 105). Note that a version of this manual in

the language you select may not be included with a camera intended for the

Japanese market.

• Camera models sold in certain geographic areas may not support display language

selection.

1. Hold down [ON/OFF] (Power) until the

back lamp lights green momentarily.

2. Use [8], [2], [4], and [6] to select

the language you want and then press

[SET].

3. Use [8] and [2] to select a date style

and then press [SET].

Example: July, 10, 2015

YY/MM/DD

* 15/7/10

DD/MM/YY

* 10/7/15

MM/DD/YY

* 7/10/15

4. Set the date and the time.

Use [4] and [6] to select the setting you want to

change and then use [8] and [2] to change it.

To switch between 12-hour and 24-hour format, press

[0] (Movie).

5. After setting the date and time, use [4] and [6]

to select “Apply” and then press [SET].

Quick Start Basics

NOTE

• Each country controls its local time offset and the use of summer time, and so they

are subject to change.

• Removing the battery from the camera too soon after configuring time and date

settings for the first time can cause the settings to be reset to their factory defaults.

Do not remove the battery for at least 24 hours after configuring settings.

Though the camera has built-in memory that can be used to store images and

movies, you probably will want to purchase a commercially available memory card for

greater capacity. The camera does not come with a memory card. Images recorded

while a memory card is loaded are saved to the memory card. When no memory card

is loaded, images are saved to built-in memory.

• For information about memory card capacities, see page 130.

. Supported Memory Cards

– SD Memory Card

– SDHC Memory Card

– SDXC Memory Card

• The above are supported memory card types as of June 2013.

• This camera supports use of SD memory cards of the following types and

capacities: SD memory cards up to 2GB, SDHC memory cards from 2GB up to

32GB, SDXC memory cards from 32GB up to 2TB. Note that the ability to use any

particular card with this camera, even if it satisfies the above capacity and type

requirements, is not guaranteed.

• This camera supports use of Eye-Fi cards and FlashAir cards.

If you make a mistake configuring display language, date, or time settings with the

above procedure, refer to the following pages for information about how to correct

the settings.
